A Big Railroad scheme. =.

The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company are quietly buying no prop
erty on the north side of Fiinert street
between Broad street and Twenty.
second street. Philadelphia. The pur
pose is to parallel the Pennsylvauia
railroads elevated viaa uct and build q
great passenger and freight depot on
the northwest corner of Broad and Eli.
bert streets. Donaldson's Hotel on the
corner and the buildings west to Eff.
teenth street, are to be torn down to
oleir the site for the new depot, and all
the buildings on the north side OF FIJI.
bert street to Twenty-second are to be
torn down to make way for the new
elevated road. The scheme has pro
gressed so far that plans and maps ha W
been drawn for the proposed improve
ment. In case the Baltimore and Ohio
succeed in getting down to Broad street
their depot site between Broad and
Filbert streets will be gooddeal
deeper than the Pennsylvania site be-
tweet Fifteenth and Merrick streets.
Ii Is estimated that the improvem en-,
will cost the Baltimore and Ohio Com
pany more than two million dollars.

She Accuses Peak .

MOUNT HOLLY, N. j., Feb. l0.-Mafy
q. Anderson, bright and attractive
young lady, II years OF age, of this
place, was found with bullet In her
brain on Tuesday morning, Just on the
outskirts of the town. On Monday
|evening Kate, az she was familiarly
called, left the house of b. Stratton
Colkitt, farmer, with whom she nve
without eating any supper, and remark
ing aB she left that she did not feel well.
IS was no unusual thing for her to
stay over night At the house of Josiah
Peak, whose wife is her aunt, and when
she did not return but little was thought
OF IT, and no attempt was made to find
her. Tuesday morning Amos johnson,
neighDoring farmer, and his son Fred.
started TO to drive to the mill at Eayers
| town, aud when near a small stream be
tween Calbitts farm and Eay W.,
they saw the girls body lying by the
roadside. B lieving 1t TO be hat OF
Mary Anderson, JohIson sent hts son
at oroe for Colkitt, who returned with
him and found that the suspicion was q
correct one.
On the left side o; the girl'e head
about an inoh above the ear was a gap
ing, bloody hole, where a bullet had
crashed through the skull. Mary was
not cead, however, and q phyaiciau
was summoned at once. On examina.
tion he declared that tho victim had
but little chance to live, and would
probably die without recovering con.
sciousness, and she haa since remained
In comntofe state, and unable to shed
any light on the sho otinS.
Shortly before the girl was found o
woman who passed near the place dis.
covered o seven chamber revolver, one
chamber being empty. Shortly aftei
this was identified by John Witcraft as
one which hs had traded to Barclay
PEAK, son of the aunt whom Mary
| went to visit and who was waiting
upon her. This called to mind the fact
that be had told her not long ago that
he would kill any woman who played
false to him.
Acting upon this clue, Peak was Or.
rested and held to answer for the crime,
| it being afterward shown that he had
been seen walking with Mary Dear tie
place where her almost lifelegs body
was found. The fact, too, that she
wore on her finger ring presented to
oring to the supposition that Peak may
have executed the jealous threat which
be was heard to make. He claims that
he had loaned his revolver to May,
and said that he believes she commit
ted suicide because she was badly
treated by her relatives This, how.
ever, Is contradicted by several partie,
who are familiar with her associations.
Yesterday afternoon the prisoner was
given hearing, and as the evidence
strongly pointed to Peaks guilt, he was
held to walt the result OF the injuries.
The wounded girl at an early hour this
morning regained consciousness and
charged that young Peak had shot her
and attempted to outrage her. There is
much excitement at the county scat
